Satire Example

  When I looked at this picture of satire, it made me laugh because it was really hypocritical to the group that decided to post this sign that is in CLEAR violation of their own rules.  The sign says, "NO posting of signs on public proterty" and the sign telling people not to post on public proterty is a sign posted on public proterty (posted on a street pole).  The picture uses irony and a little bit of burlesque portraying the stupidity of the people who posted the sign.  Irony, because it is a contradiction in itself.

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn Reflection

  In The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, there are many great aspects to why Twain's readers would love to read this book, but the main reasons why I in particular enjoyed this read is because 1) it gave you such a real sense of what it was like back in the day it was set in, and 2) the witty remarks of the characters and the journey Huck takes with Jim down the river captivates you, and makes you wonder what adventure will lie ahead.  Twain's use of satire in this book is also something that made readers want to read more (especially me), and also gave the book it's "flair".  I for one loved reading this novel, and all in all, it was a great read.
